Fitness blogger and how to sex position videosnew mom Kelsey Wells wanted to lose weight after she gave birth to her son. In a new Instagram post, she reveals that didn't happen — but something better did.
"I weighed 130 before getting pregnant, so based on nothing besides my own warped perception, I decided my "goal weight" should be 122 and to fit into my skinniest jeans," Wells wrote in a post on Instagram.
But after committing to a fitness regimen, Wells noticed she actually started to gainweight.

However, Wells also said she's never felt healthier or more comfortable in her own skin.
"According to my old self and flawed standards, I would be failing miserably," she wrote. "Thank goodness I finally learned to start measuring my progress by the things that matter — strength, ability, endurance, health and happiness." (Also worth noting: you're allowed to be happy with yourself at any time, even if you're not physically fit.)
Seems like the perfect opportunity to toss out that scale.
